Chapter 437: Return (1)
Here it comes. β
Mother Qu's heart jumped. During this time, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention Yunqing, for fear of irritating Mrs. Although Yuxi swore that Yunqing would come back, everyone was not as confident as her, and it was estimated that the bones of those who had been missing for more than ten days would not be found. It's just that he thought so in his heart, but his face didn't reveal half a point: "Well, the general should be able to come back in a few days." β
The Northern Captivity Army retreated, and Han Ji also returned to his home. In the past few days, Han Ji has been so tired that he has lost a lot of weight.
Yuxi saw him and said, "I've worked hard for you these days. β
Han Ji smiled bitterly: "Compared with those soldiers who fought bloodily, my hard work is nothing. "In order to protect the people of Yucheng, those soldiers completely put life and death out of the way, so the things he did were really nothing.
Yuxi looked at Han Ji, and a smile appeared on his face: "I'm very relieved that Steward Han can say that." She asked Han Ji to take the people in the mansion out to help, not only to earn fame, but also to train these people. The others don't know for the time being, but just looking at Han Ji knows that the effect is significant.
Han Ji said, "Madam, I think we should do something. "Han Ji meant to help the families of these dead soldiers.
Before Yuxi proposed to help these families in difficulty, Han Ji also felt that this was spending money to earn fame. But after this incident, he no longer had this idea. He thought it would be nice if there were a few more people like Madame.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "For the time being, we won't do anything, and we will wait until the imperial court has paid the pension." "With so many dead and injured this time, whether the pension can be paid is really a very mysterious matter. But even so, she can't jump out and say that she wants to help those people now. The gun shot the first bird, this time, their Yunfu behavior was already very out of line, and it must have provoked Qin Zhao's eyes. Lately, it is time to keep a low profile. At least until Yunqing returns, she is not ready to do anything more.
Han Ji nodded lightly and said, "Listen to Madame." β
Yuxi said: "There are things outside that Qin Zhao and General Zhao are cooking. It's time for you to take care of the affairs in the mansion now. β
Han Ji nodded and said, "Don't worry, madam, I'm measured." He admired the soldiers who defended their homeland and wanted to help their wives and children, but this could only be done with the permission of his wife.
Yuxi's expression eased a lot, and said, "Take care of the affairs in the mansion, and you will take people to the West Sea." This time I went to Xihai not only to buy furs, but also to buy more medicinal materials to come back. The medicinal herbs in the mansion have been almost used. "The precious medicinal herbs in her hand are almost used, and she can eat poorly here, but she must not be without the medicinal herbs in her hand.
Han Ji nodded heavily and said, "Okay, I will do my best to settle the affairs in the mansion and then go to the West Sea." β
In the evening, Xu Wu entered the inner courtyard and said to Yuxi: "Madam, Qin Zhao and General Zhao are burying all the soldiers who died in battle. Everyone in Yucheng must change into sackcloth. "I put on sackcloth to pay tribute to the dead soldiers.
When Yuxi heard this, his expression was also very heavy, and he said, "I'll order it right away." After a pause, he said, "What about the soldiers who died outside?"
When Xu Wu heard this, he lowered his head and did not reply. The soldiers who died outside this time could only throw their corpses into the wilderness.
Yuxi's heart also became heavy.
Xu Wu said: "Madam, when all the dead soldiers are buried, a memorial will be held." When the time comes, I'll go on behalf of Yunfu!" Yuxi definitely can't go with a big belly.
Hearing this, Yuxi asked, "Can a woman go during the memorial service?" Seeing Xu Wu nodding, Yuxi said, "Then you will take Zijin with you." β
Xu Wu glanced at Yuxi, and saw that Yuxi's expression was very calm, and he couldn't see what medicine was sold in this gourd. couldn't figure it out, he simply didn't want to think about it, nodded and agreed. Then he said something else: "Madam, if it is true that the general burned the grain and grass of the captives, then the general should be able to return in the next two days." β
Yuxi nodded lightly and said, "Well, I calculated that it should take a few days!" Although he was sure that Yunqing was fine, he was still unstable in his heart before he came back.
The northern captivity was withdrawn, and the danger was lifted. The more than 80 guards who had been released to help, as well as a handful of maids, all returned. Now that the northern captives have been retired, the wounded soldiers will naturally be taken over, and they will not be needed. So this night, except for Huo Changqing, everyone else moved back to their original place.
That night, Yuxi finally had a solid sleep. When he woke up the next day, the first thing Yuxi did was to ask Zi Jin about her condition. Yuxi was worried that Zijin had a fever, and these people were afraid that they would worry and hide it from themselves.
Mother Qu said: "Zijin is still asleep, not awake. However, Yu Zhi had a fever yesterday, and when he found it in time, he asked the doctor to grab the medicine, and the fever has subsided. "Yu Zhi is not only not as good as Zi Jin in martial arts, but also not as good as Zi Jin in his body. Although Zi Jin suffered a little when she was young, she has also eaten a lot of good things with Yuxi over the years, and her body has grown well.
Yuxi frowned and said, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Mother Qu said: "It was Master Yang who didn't let me say it." Master Yang said that suing Mrs. SΓΉ would only make Mrs. anxious. These words were polished by Mother Qu, and Master Yang's original words were that Yuxi should be allowed to take care of her with a big belly, and she should not be allowed to work.
Yuxi didn't say anything more after hearing this. Master Yang loves Yu Zhi as a son, and he takes care of him by his side, more than anyone else: "I'll take a look." β
Zi Jin slept until the sun went down and didn't wake up, and when she woke up, she cried out that she was hungry. Seeing that Mother Bai brought red date porridge, she shouted at Yuxi: "Madam, you promised me that after I woke up, I would eat big meat buns." Where's the big meat bun?"
Mother Bai said, "Girl Zijin, this big meat bun has been eaten. If you want to eat it, I'll make it tomorrow morning!"
Yuxi was not so polite, and said, "If you call it again, you won't have to drink the porridge." Thinking of what Yu Zhi told her about the past few days, she was angry and distressed.
What Zi Jin was most afraid of was that Yuxi was angry, and seeing that Yuxi's face was not good-looking, she honestly lowered her head and drank porridge.
After drinking the porridge, Zi Jin asked, "Madam, is the general back?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "No, it should be a few days before I come back." β
Zi Jin said, "Madam, I think we should let someone go to the general. You think, the general must have hidden if he wanted to avoid the pursuit of those northern captives. Since there must be no horses left in hiding, you have to rely on two legs to return to Yucheng. In these two or three days, will he be able to return to Yucheng?"
Yuxi shook his head and said, "You can't go to find it, wait for him to come back by himself." "Qin Zhao has always wanted to kill Yun Qing, in case they were intercepted by Qin Zhao because their people leaked Yun Qing's whereabouts. When the time comes, there is no proof of death, and then it will be really wronged.
Zi Jin was a little worried: "In case ......"
Yuxi smiled and said, "No in case. I am sure that he will return safely. "Not only from the memories of her previous life, but also from Yunqing's strong strength, which gives her this confidence.
Zi Jin felt that Yuxi believed in Yunqing too much, and she was almost blind. It's just that at this juncture, she can't spoil the fun. Moreover, deep down, she also hoped that Yunqing would return safely. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what would happen to her wife if Yun Qing died.
After Yunqing and his party burned the grain and grass of the northern captives, they hid back in the jungle. When they went to burn grain and grass, they were eighteen, and when they came back, they were ten. Two of the ten men were slightly injured and two were seriously injured, of which Yu Cong was seriously injured.
In the past few days, the group had to watch out for the pursuers, take care of the wounded, find food, and guard against the attack of this beast, and the group had an extremely difficult time. After staying in the deep forest for four days, they made sure that they had shaken off their pursuers before they came out of the deep forest.
Unexpectedly, on the afternoon of the second day after coming out, I saw the Northern Capture Army retreating. When Yu Cong heard the news, he said to Yunqing: "Since the Northern Capture has retreated, the general should also go back." β
Yun Qing said very little, and when he heard Yu Cong's words, he snorted.
Yu Cong saw that Yun Qing pretended not to understand his words, and he didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "General, Madame is still pregnant! If you don't return for a long time, if Madam thinks that you died in battle and has a fetal gas, then my sin will be great." β
To be honest, he was really worried about Yuxi. More than half a month has passed since the expedition, in case Yuxi thinks that he is dead and has a fetal gas, the child will have to be born prematurely, as for the consequences of being strict, he can't imagine it: "I will take Wu Tube back, Yuan Ying and others will stay and take care of you." When I get back to Yucheng, I'll send someone to pick me up. Yunqing was also worried about Huo Changqing's safety, there were so many chasing soldiers at that time, and he was not sure if Uncle Huo could escape.
Yu Cong nodded and said, "Okay." β
Yuan Ying listened to Yu Cong's words and said to Yunqing: "The general returned to Yucheng, and asked the general to send someone to inform my daughter-in-law, so that she would know that I was still alive, so that she would not think I was dead and shed tears." "I didn't die this time, it's really a big fortune teller.
Hearing this, Yun Qing nodded and said, "Don't worry, when I return to Yucheng, I will let people send peace to your daughter-in-law." β
When leaving, Yunqing looked at the group and said, "Don't worry, I will send someone to pick you up when I return to Yucheng." "With so many wounded soldiers, the pace must be slow.
